Mark Kenkre, Partner and Head of the Investment Fraud and Mis-Selling Team, and Lesley-Ann Ainsworth, Senior Associate, explore the surge in group actions relating to crypto investments following a crash in the value of cryptoassets.

“With the recent crypto crash, we have seen a collapse in the value of cryptocurrencies. Despite digital currencies peaking in value at $3 trillion in November 2021, they have since lost an incredible $2 trillion in value, with Bitcoin now trading at less than a third of its record price. The cryptoasset crash is leading to a surge in litigation relating to crypto investments, both in the UK and internationally. In particular, we are seeing an increase in class actions relating to cryptoasset investments.”
